The Labour Department’s Law Enforcement Division conducted an operation in Tasek Meradun, targeting foreign labour residences.
Four offences committed by employers were uncovered where two were for employing moonlighting workers with expired worker’s licences, one for not providing clean and adequate accommodation and another for not providing workers with medical insurance.
Employers found breaching the Employment Order, 2009 will be fined up to BND1,000. The failure to settle the fine will result in the case being brought to court.
